While I *could* use it for online shopping/banking, I usually just go back to Firefox in Windows, and because SourceForge isn't updating it's version of edbrowse, Debian hasn't been keeping up with what's current. It still works well with most websites, using the SeaMonkey java libraries to keep up with the Jones'es for java support. It takes a little getting used to, but once you know a page layout, you can navigate as fast as if you were sighted, or you could simply script in a macro to handle the navigation for you. Edbrowse's Google macro is a fine example of accessing and cleaning up google's web pages to leave you with only the meat of the search results and nothing else. Just type: <gg (search criteria) ...and edbrowse will fill in the search criteria as if you'd loaded the page already, then filter out the results from the page headers and footers.
